Lesson 3: Perimeter Security Methods

Using firewalls to apply stateful perimeter security is a fundamental part of most network designs. This lesson covers the evolution of identity-based firewalling on the Cisco ASA from Cut-Through Proxy to Identity Firewall to integration with Cisco TrustSec. Cisco IOS Zone-Based Firewall is then reviewed including a discussion of the Self-Zone, applying firewall services at various layers, and integration with Cisco TrustSec. This lesson also presents working configurations for both firewalls.
